New — The Wayfinder
Know where you're headed.
A clean crown, a wide sweeping brim, and an antique wild rose tooled band closed with a sterling silver buckle set. Shaped by hand in Salina, Utah since 1876.
The Wayfinder
Built for the long way around.
The Wayfinder is a hat you can point in any direction. The crown is shaped clean and honest, the brim carries a wide, easy sweep, and the whole thing is steamed and finished by hand, not pressed out by a machine.
Every hat leaves the shop with an antique wild rose tooled band and a sterling silver buckle set, so nothing about it needs finishing later.

Eleven colors
Pick your felt.
From the palest bone to a black so deep it reads blue in the sun. Eleven felt colors, every one of them available across the Wayfinder range.
Screen colors are a guide only. Each one is handmade, so there is a bit of variation between hats. If you are deciding on a color, call the shop and we will talk you through it.
Three qualities
The felt is the difference.
The wayfinder is complete with an arrowhead crown, belly curl, and a tooled antique rose hat band. What changes is how much beaver is in the felt and that decides how the hat holds its shape, sheds weather, and ages with you.
